Product Description

This electric La Cafetiere Milk Frother is perfect for creating frothy coffee. This milk frother is extremely lightweight with an ergonomically shaped handle. It has a removable wand for easy cleaning. The milk frother takes 2 AA batteries which are included.

This handy frother works well. I heat one third of a cup of milk in microwave and froth it before adding coffee and water. Best not to froth when cup is full as it tends to swish over the edge. I am going to order another one to take to Portugal!

I had difficulty frothing milk first time and found it better to use a narrow container, which could make the milk lose heat when transferred back to a cup. The frother is great for mixing salad dressings in relatively small quantities (for 2 people.)

I bought this frother a few weeks ago and it is very useful and really a bargain price. The only slight criticism is that the whisk part drops out occasionally but is quite easy to push back in again. Froths the milk beautifully.

This item is great for mixing milky drinks such as chocolate and coffee. If you use it in a cup then just use short bursts of the frother ie switch on and off quickly 2 or 3 times otherwise the cup will overflow! It's easy to keep clean by rinsing under the tap as the whisk element has good space between the coil if wire.

I found this milk frother very disappointing, although it didn't cost much, I have to say. I believe I paid £5.00. I found the power was totally pathetic, in spite of using the provided batteries and even swapped for brand new batteries. It took much longer to mix the hot chocolate mix than it had with my previous frother. Any contact with the base or sides of the container/mug, the frother would stop. It just had very weak power. I had previously used another, relatively cheap frother which I had been pleased with, mixed and frothed very easily and took a firmer pressure on the base or sides to stop the whisk.

This is now relegated to the draw and will be giving it to a friend who might (not) be happy to be able to mix their hot chocolate instead of a spoon, not expecting it to get any significant froth. Having read other reviews of this product, I suspect mine could have been a 'Monday morning' or 'Friday afternoon' product, or they are rather hit and miss regarding quality.

I have since bought a far superior milk frother which is far, far more powerful than even my first one but not that much more expensive!
